I think this season is improving as it goes. Last night's eliminations were spot on necessary. I believe that the consistent Top 3 will end up being our Final 3.

I read an interesting YouTube comment about why Carly Rose Sonenclar was 2nd for the first two weeks. Tate Stevens is the only country singer so naturally he would get all the country singer fans' votes. As other more "pop" artists get eliminated, their votes will probably be going to contestants like Carly Rose Sonenclar. As the season goes on, I think Carly Rose Sonenclar will keep being consistent at number 1 while I see Tate Stevens possibly falling down.

The theme for this week was number-ones. Paige Thomas was eliminated right away after arguably one of her better performances. It was really surprising. The two acts that competed in the sing-off were Vino Alan and Diamond White. Vino Alan had probably his worst performance so far so it wasn't that surprising that he found himself in the bottom 3. Vino Alan was sent home by a 3-1 vote, with the only vote not against him coming from his mentor, LA Reid.

This week the acts performed two songs each. The first theme was unplugged songs and the second theme was Pepsi Challenge songs, songs that the public chose for the act. There was another double elimination. CeCe Frey (finally) is sent home! While I admire her fighting spirit, her vocal abilities are not up to par with the competition. Diamond White and Fifth Harmony were in the sing-off and Diamond White was sent home with a 3-1 vote, with the only vote not against her coming from her mentor, Britney Spears.

Can someone tell me why Tate Stevens is still in the competition? His voice is average at best and his performances are never memorable... I thought last night's bottom three should have consisted of CeCe Frey, Emblem 3 and Tate Stevens. Oh by the way, Diamond White's Pepsi Challenge song was Diamonds by Rihanna... and she started her song in a diamond in the sky... Anyway, onto my favourite performances. Carly Rose Sonenclar had an amazing night last night...

I loved those three performances above too. I don't get Tate Stevens being NO 1 too. I think he's gathering all the votes from the older generation while the younger generation have to split their votes. I think.

Diamond going home BOO. But honestly, I didn't like her Diamonds performance.

This week, the acts performed two songs to the themes of contestant's choice and songs to get you to the final. What a creative theme. The act with the lowest number of votes was eliminated and there was no showdown or no placement reveal. Emblem3 was eliminated, which was apparently shocking because people thought Fifth Harmony was going to go home? I find that a bit silly because Fifth Harmony had an amazing night. Carly Rose Sonenclar probably had her worst night so far but it was still enough to get into the finale... and Tate Stevens? I just think he sucks all the time. Nothing against country music, but there's nothing special about him IMO.

And there are rumours that L.A. Reid will be leaving after the end of season 2 to focus full time on music!

I was just watching a program from my local channel cuz it was left on. The time I returned home and saw the screen, I saw someone who has the distinct features of Carly Rose. I was quite sure it was her. The only thing throwing me off were the glasses. But I was totally sure it was her once she started singing with that strong Broadway-like voice of hers. I did some quick research and it.was her! If anyone's interested, the show is The Electric Company. It was about world records.

I still can't believe Carly didn't win. It's like, all season they hyped up her profile and tone down Tate's one. And when Tate won, it just seemed like his win was undeserving in the eyes of many. A little like Adam VS Kris Allen V2.0
